The main greenhouse gas that is responsible for global warming is carbon dioxide(CO2). Others include nitrous-oxide, chlorofluorocarbon (CFC), methane, etc. Greenhouse gases come from various sources.
1. Carbon dioxide (CO2): The major greenhouse gas is Carbon dioxide. The sources of carbon di-oxide includes:
Burning of fossil fuels.Levels increases as a consequence of deforestation.
2. Methane (CH4): Methane is responsible for about 20% of the greenhouse effect. The sources of methane includes:
Rice,Paddies,Burning of wood,Cattle,Wetland,Land fields, etc.
3. Chlorofluorocarbon (CFC): About 15% of greenhouse effect is due to these gases. In case of heat absorbing power it is thousand times more effective than CO2. The sources of chlorofluorocarbon includes:
Air conditioning industry,foam packaging industry, etc.
